Choose a Layout​

When prompted to choose a layout, you have the following options:

  1. Start with an empty layout.
  2. Use a pre-configured layout provided by MoBro or one you’ve installed from the Marketplace.

By default, MoBro includes basic layouts to help you get started. Alternatively, you can install and use shared layouts from the Marketplace.

tip

If you're new to MoBro, we recommend starting with an existing layout to familiarize yourself with the dashboard builder.
Creating a dashboard from scratch can be time-consuming and may feel overwhelming for beginners.

Choose Existing Layout

Customize Your Dashboard​

After selecting a layout (either empty or pre-configured), MoBro will open the Dashboard Builder, where you can start customizing your layout to fit your needs.

By following these steps, you can easily create and modify dashboards in MoBro.
